Nice work on the ID , 1890 bottle sticking out of the sand would make you think there should be some good finds nearby , Good Luck

I have found 1890s era Hutchinson bottles half sticking out of the top of sand dunes at the beach, thanks to wind erosion.

A quick way to tell if a bottle is over the 100 year mark is the loom at the lines on each side. In older bottles, the line stops before it reaches the top. The factory one go right to the top. Just a little advise
